machine and your purpose.

• Attention! After long time storage, the battery capacity will be
reduce.
• A new battery or one which has not been used for an extended
period achieves full performance only after charging and
discharging cycles. A substantial drop in operating period per
charge indicates that the battery is worn out and must be
replaced.
WORKING AREA

accidents.

the presence of flammable liquids, gases or dust. Power tools
create sparks which may ignite the dust or fumes.

electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with earthed surfaces such as pipes, radiators,
kitchen ranges and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of an
electric shock if your body is earthed.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. If water gets
inside a power tool, it will increase the risk of an
• electric shock.
• Do not damage the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling
or unplugging the power tool. Keep the cord away from heat,
oil, sharp edges or moving parts. Damaged or entangled cords
increase the risk of an electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cable
suitable for outdoor use. Using a cord suitable for outdoor use
reduces the risk of an electric shock.
• If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a
power supply protected by a residual current device (RCD). Using
an RCD reduces the risk of an electric shock.
• Stay alert, watch what you are doing and use common sense when
operating a power tool. Do not use a power tool when you are tired
or under the influence of drugs, alcohol or medication. A moment
of inattention when operating a power tool may result in serious
personal injury.
• Use safety equipment. Always wear eye protection. Using safety
equipment such as a dust mask, non-skid safety shoes, a hard
hat, or hearing protection whenever it is needed will reduce
therisk of personal injury.
• Avoid accidental starts. Ensure the switch is in the off position
before inserting the plug. Carrying power tools with your finger on
the switch or plugging in power tools when the switch is in the on
position makes accidents more likely.
• Remove any adjusting keys or spanners before turning on the
power tool. A spanner or key left attached to a rotating part of the
power tool may result in personal injury.
• Do not reach out too far. Keep your feet firmly on the ground at all
times. This will enable you retain control over the power tool in
unexpected situations.
• Dress properly. Do not wear loose clothing or jewellery. Keep your
hair, clothing and gloves away from the power tool. Loose clothes,
jewellery or long hair can become entangled in the moving parts.
